Default rating categories ....

A player's rating category is determined by their first game in the cycle.

The player's rating is taken at the end of the tournament.

IN THE SEASONAL CYCLE:
• ----- • ------------------ •
| 1st | 2200 - 2900 |
| 2nd | 1800 - 2200 |
| 3rd | 1000 - 1800 |
• ----- • ------------------ •

IN MONTHLY CYCLES:
• ----- • ------------------ •
| 1st | 2400 - 2900 |
| 2nd | 2200 - 2400 |
| 3rd | 2000 - 2200 |

Changing the rating category ...

Attention! The threshold for changing the rating category is 25 ELO points. For example...
After the first tournament in the cycle, the player was in the 1600-1800 category. Moving to the 1800-2000 category will take place if the rating crosses the 1825 point mark. In the 1000-1600 category if it crosses the 1775 mark. The exception is the final tournament of the cycle. When calculating the totals, the rating category will not be downgraded.

We divide into three rating categories. To better understand which of the players in which category - let's designate them with colors!

1st | 2200 - 2900 | - ›" ORANGE "
2nd | 1800 - 2200 | - ›" BLUE "
3rd | 1000 - 1800 | - ›" GREEN "

We see that @ Barmaley80 is in 5th place in the tournament, but in his rating category he is in first !! He managed to climb the highest out of the 1800-2200 rating category! It's easy to see that @pushkarevsfamily took 28th place in the tournament, but again in his category (1000-1800) - first !! For convenience, we make three from one general tournament table! Colors are for clarity. Now each rating category has its own standings!

The coefficient of the rating difference was not taken into account when compiling this standings.
——————————————
HOMEPAGE - lichess.org/team/career-leagues
——————————————

Rating difference coefficient

...

The coefficient is calculated based on the ELO rating of the opponents in each game. Depending on whether the WINNER's rating is higher or lower, the coefficient is subtracted or added accordingly.

——————————————

If the winner has a rating in the game:
• does not exceed the mark of 200 points, then the coefficient is 0
• over 200 - 400 points, 0.2 points are removed from it
• over 400 - 600 points, 0.4 points are removed from it
• over 600 - 800 points 0.6 points are removed from it
• etc...

If the winner has a rating in the game:
• not lower than the mark of 200 points, then the coefficient is 0
• below 200 - 400 points 0.2 points are added to it
• below 400 - 600 points 0.2 points are added to it
• below 600 - 800 points 0.2 points are added to it
• etc...
